Exosome Therapy: an Effective Alternative for More Permanent Hair Restoration

One of the hottest areas in regenerative treatments right now is exosome therapy. Imagine being able to regenerate hair follicles to combat baldness or thinning hair! Hair restoration is usually associated with painful implants, or temporary topical treatments, but exosomes are showing a great deal of potential in re-growing hair that has stopped growing, by rejuvenating the follicle while keeping side effects and recovery time to a minimum.

Exosomes are vesicles, or cellular components, that are released from cells, especially from stem cells. They act as “messengers,” transferring certain genetic information and proteins between cells. In short, exosomes are how cells “talk” to each other. Researchers are now finding that it’s possible for exosomes to enhance the healing process for patients.

Exosome therapy was originally studied to regenerate the skin on the faces of patients who had suffered third degree burns. The incredible regenerative abilities of exosomes are now being applied to treat a host of conditions, from orthopedic injuries, to fighting the effects of aging — to hair regeneration.

The serum used in exosome hair loss treatment alters the environment of the stem cells located within the patient’s scalp. This allows for the stem cells to generate their own exosomes, restoring and regenerating dormant hair follicles, which then allows for new hair to be produced in areas where it has thinned or been lost completely.

While the science behind this procedure is complex – the procedure is not. The powerful combination of growth factors in the exosome injections enable our patients to regrow fuller, thicker heads of hair.
